There were shadows that kept dancing in her line of sight. Every time jaw jerked up, they stood as still as the trees they copied. Again, she would straighten her frame, carrying onward with no idea where she was even trying to go. All she knew was it felt good to let her legs rid of more miles.

Upon this night. (She wouldn't know there was no end) There was no wind to play tricks, oddly enough in this pitch of greys and blacks. There were no stars either to assure her of what lie a head. They were covered by clouds or so she assumed. Eyes could not see them, and her nose could only scent the evergreens, the damp of the earth that had hint of life.

"Ériu, what tis this place?"It was starting to get hard to deny her exhaustion, but not her wariness. This forest was not home, nor any where she had been before. She much rather had done this during the day. This place she thought would end, but did not have one in sight. Onward she let her hooves clip against the ground, giving way into a slow trot. Walking didn't appeal to her, afraid something would find her. While she thought she was a decent fighter, the nightmares of old stories made her wonder if those wicked, damn things lived here and she was under their spell. The mare laughed lightly. Out here it was more likely a wild cat would get her, and she shoved aside the images of ghostly maidens that had always scared her as a child.

No, this surely was not their lair. This wasn't the ruins of Denar nor the foggy coast of Reyk. The further she pressed herself, she was beginning to sweat and with a sigh of knowing she stopped in a clearing, thinking she might have very well heard the sounds of horse's steps.
